  • This video is about making a blanket chest for my daughter.
    It's made with 36 separate handcut dovetails. Also, she wanted multiple woods, so I choose cherry for the sides, tiger maple for the top, the bottom is made of white cedar (to encourage bugs to leave), and, the legs are made of walnut.
    Shaker craftsmanship is evident in the Blanket Chest in both its design and its construction, which depicts handcut dovetail joints. Compared with machine cut dovetails, these challenge the creator’s skills and are beautiful to observe.

    Very nice. I'm curious how you attached the bottom. Dados, rabbit, cleats? Thanks, I'm doing similar chest next month

      @jslav-jj2xq. Thanks for your comment. I used a dado since they could be a bit of weight in contents in the chest. Do you use the new dovetail method?
